Released in 1982 as a single for his album I Used to Want to Be a Cowboy, Chris LeDoux’s “This Cowboy’s Hat” tells a touching story, just like most of the best Western songs.Here’s Why You Should Respect a Cowboy’s Hat
“This Cowboy’s Hat” is written by Jake Brooks and country singer Porter Wagoner, who originally released the song in 1983. It tells the story of a cowboy being bullied by a handful of rough-looking bikers.The biggest of the bikers asked the cowboy’s friend where he parked his horse, to which he just turned a blind eye to. However, one biker threatened to take his hat – something he just can’t let slide. He put one’s foot down in the most badass cowboy way, allowing the biker to know that he’s playing a dangerous game.
